Livin’ in the Lakes - Spectacular Half Day Tour of Tonle Sap Lake with an Exciting Visit to Chong Khneas

Here’s your gateway to a double treat - a chance to get up close and personal with the local Cambodian life all the while soaking in the mesmerising beauty of the Siem Reap countryside. This half day tour of the vibrant Chong Khneas and stunning Tonle Sap Lake is sure to get your inner traveller the jubilant rush of experiencing a new place.

With a convenient pickup available right from your hotel lobby, you can admire the spectacular sight of rustic Siem Reap suburbs on your way to the wharf as you cross beautiful paddy fields, quaint little villages and the breath taking sight of water bodies filled with a ravishing bunch of lotuses. Once you reach the wharf, we will take you on a delightfully scenic sail on the Tonle Sap in a traditional long tail boat.

With excitement building up as we set sail to the swaying current of the lake, feast your eyes on more of the exquisite Cambodian scenery surrounding you. As you reach Chong Khneas, you are slowly enveloped by the intoxicating frenzy of the local community at the fishing village. It’s quite a sight - a bunch of boats fashioned into houses, markets, administrative buildings and what not, right in the middle of the lake. It’s as if Atlantis had suddenly decided to pop up from the seabed and roll out its life force across the surface of the lake. This group of floating fishing villages is one of the most engrossingly busy place in Siem Reap, and is the perfect spot to witness the nuances of Cambodian society. Explore their intriguing heritage, interact with the indigenous people, observe their cultural habits - it’s a day that will return you with an enriched soul!
